Annual salary is only 6 million! With three-point defense and Lakers have full scores, he can become the new Vanderbilt

Season 24-25, Vanderbilt averaged 4.1 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game. Regarding the data, it should be noted that the true positive and negative value of defense is 1.3. For this, compare the data of the group:

1, 1.5 of thriller's value;

2, McDaniels value 1.4;

3, Adeba's approximate value 1.0. According to the comparison data, Vanderbilt on the defensive end has an All-Star level. In fact, the problem with "Van Debiao" is not in defense, but in offense.

is still in season 24-25, when Vanderbilt was present, the Lakers scored 107.6 points in a hundred leg. For comparison, the Wizards' value is 105.8 points and the Hornets' value is 106.7 points. When Vanderbilt was not present, the Lakers scored 114.6 points in a hundred leg. For comparison, the Rockets' value is 114.9 points and the Timberwolves' value is 115.7 points.

In other words, when Vanderbilt is on the court, the Lakers' offense is at the bottom of the league, and when not on the court, the league is close to the top level. From this perspective, Vanderbilt's offense against the Lakers is a side effect - an offensive black hole, leaving the team in a 4-on-5 situation.

Unlike injuries that can be overcome, it is basically difficult for Vanderbilt to improve this. Therefore, the former positioning for the Lakers in the new season is very embarrassing.

, should I start?

The ending efficiency is inefficient, leaving the team in a 4-on-5 situation on the offensive end.

should I play as a substitute?

Compared with the starting lineup, the substitutes pay more attention to offense rather than defense, which is exactly contrary to Vanderbilt's characteristics.

Speaking of this, we all know that Pelinka signed Jack Laravia for 2 years and $12 million. At the same time, according to the NBA China official website: Laravia's joining the Lakers is considered to be one of the five underrated signing operations in the offseason.

For Laravia, I think it is possible to become the Lakers' new Vanderbilt.

First, offensive. In the 24-25 season, Laravia made a total of 475 shots, of which 142 were from outside the three-point line. Three-point shots account for more than 42.1%, which is obviously the main ending method. In terms of shooting rate, 42.3%, as a comparison:

1, Curry's value is 39.7%;

2, Edwards' value is 39.5%;

3, Halliburton's value is 38.8%.

Obviously, Laravia's three-point efficiency has reached a super-giant level. Of course, the sample of 142 shots is not large, but this is not important. What is important is that you can effectively grasp the opportunity when it appears.

Second, defense. When playing for the Kings in the 24-25 season, Laravia's real positive and negative defense value was 1.1, which brought the opponent's shooting rate from 46.5% to 41.6% under his defense.

In other words, in this half of the season alone, Laravia's defensive efficiency is not inferior to Vanderbilt.

To sum up the above two points, we can understand that the new Vanderbilt is not very different in defense, Laravia has better offensive ability than the former, at least not being emptied by the opponent on the court. This is one of them.

Secondly, if it is maintained well on both ends of the offense and defense, it can play an effect and role like Vanderbilt. Of course, here is only the defensive end.

In the end, Laravia, who had three-pointers and defense, obviously the Lakers' operation can give full marks. To put it bluntly, it's very cost-effective.
